Book excerpt: New York Times bestselling author and Printz Award winner Walter Dean Myers once again connects with teenagers everywhere in Darius & Twig, a novel about friendship and needing to live one's own dream. This touching and raw teen novel from the author of Monster, Kick, We Are America, Bad Boy, and many other celebrated literary works for children and teens is a Coretta Scott King Honor Book. Darius and Twig are an unlikely pair: Darius is a writer whose only escape is his alter ego, a peregrine falcon named Fury, and Twig is a middle-distance runner striving for athletic success. But they are drawn together in the struggle to overcome the obstacles that life in Harlem throws at them. The two friends must face down bullies, an abusive uncle, and the idea that they'll be stuck in the same place forever. Maria Russo, writing in the New York Times, included Darius & Twig on her list of "great kids' books with diverse characters." She commented: "The late Myers, one of the greats and a champion of diversity in children’s books well before the cause got mainstream attention, is at his elegant, heartfelt best in this 2013 novel. It’s about two friends growing up in Harlem, one a writer, one an athlete, facing daily challenges and trying to dream of a brighter future."

Book excerpt: The first volume in a series about the realm of Eversora, is the tale of Darius, a young warrior who has grown up unaware he’s the child of a wolf person and a sorcerer. On the island of Lyrea, sits the town of Sinac. Once the sacred home to the Ananta, a tribe of the race of snake people known as the Nagas who were overthrown by their wolf slaves, Sinac became a stronghold of the Szahn clan of the Nueri, wolves that can take on human form, along with a few men who helped them defeat the Nagas. More men and women came to live alongside the Szahn. Then, the Szahn returned to the forest. Reawakening begins in Sinac, on the day Darius’s life is forever changed. After an encounter with a strange little girl, Darius, the blacksmith’s son, discovers a secret passage in the castle library, where he finds a mysterious book. Later, his father reveals the shocking truth of who he and his family really are. And Darius will soon find himself in an epic battle against a sinister force that threatens the realm.

Book excerpt: Manscaping- the fashion and style column on The Playbook online men’s magazine…and Mia’s new job. Well…internship. It was only for six weeks, just so she could get the credits she needed to graduate from university, but they were paying her, so…yeah, her new job. The only problem? She would be working directly under Liam. Not that she had a problem being under Liam. She’d been there once before and it had been the best night of her life, but yeah, that was exactly the problem. She’d been under Liam before and now he was going to be her boss. He probably didn’t even remember her. He’d never called or tried to contact her after a night she would never forget so maybe it hadn’t been so unforgettable for him…but now she would be working directly under him. Yeah. That was going to be a problem.

Download or read book The Eye Expanded written by Frances B. Titchener and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2023-12-22 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plato and Aristotle both believed that the arts were mimetic creations of the human mind that had the power to influence society. In this they were representative of a widespread consensus in ancient culture. Cultural and political impulses informed the fine arts, and these in turn shaped—and were often intended to shape—the living world. The contributors to this volume, all of whom have been encouraged and inspired by the work of Peter Green, document the interaction between life and the arts that has made art more lively and life more artful in sixteen essays with subjects ranging from antiquity to modern times. With topics ranging from Antigone to D. H. Lawrence and Norman Douglas, and from Bactrian coins to Livy's characterization of women, the scope, the zest, and the scholarship of these essays will illuminate new avenues in our understanding of the relationship between classics and culture, and in our appreciation of both the artistic products that have come down to us and the varieties of life from which they spring.
